Here's a WJON FlashBriefing for July 6, 2017.
SIRENS TEST -- If you hear warning sirens in St. Cloud Friday, don't be alarmed. That's the city, testing the sirens after finishing maintenance repairs on nine of them.
CONVENIENCE STORE VIOLATIONS -- The St. Augusta Mini-Serv will have to go through another round of ID compliance training or face a fine after another failed check. The St. Augusta City Council fined the store $500 -- which can be waived if all store employees go through more training. It was the store's fourth violation in a 2-year-period.
CONVENIENCE STORE DEMOLISHED -- The now-closed Holiday gas station on East St. Germain is coming down. Demolition crews, tearing the building down. For now, still no plans for redevelopment of that block. Stay tuned.

KAYAKER SAVED -- A kayaker capsizes, gets back in his kayak, but passes out. Another kayaker on the scene helps by securing a rescue line to the man's kayak while rescue crews pull him to shore. Happened Sunday on the Sauk River near Heim's Mill.
